When a practitioner gains this skill, he becomes able to do things like:

Manage the contact with otherwise very dangerous objects to handle (eg. sharpen objects)

Preserve the integrity of delicate elements of the scenario (eg. a body limb, a glass, etc.)

Distribute weight and resistance during an impact (it is a full body capability)

Reduce the incidence of the opponents’ blows (eg. accompanying it)

Cancel the damage of accidentally self-inflicted blows (eg. as a result of errors in manipulating a martial weapon)

Catch a small flying piece of paper

…

This attitude can be mastered at different levels and even the beginners should rapidly start to become familiar with it.

A note by Master Kongling – We have not invented anything, indirectly, similar kind of mechanics are present in many other good quality martial arts (Jiu-Jitsu, Tai Chi, Systema, etc.): in 6DKF we are only trying to deepen its application (and the result that I can see with our students is that it really takes their quality of preparation it to the next level, I am so proud of you all).

A note by Master Kongling – It is not possible to assess precisely the necessary time but for the first basic results, we should work for about 2 years (this is what I generically see). After that, even not focusing our workout solely on the Soft Touch development, the improvement is almost automatic (when the body is calibrated, the conditioning is mostly mental and passive).

In the future, we will add more exercises but for now, this is more than enough: the quality of the result is in our hands (concentration, preparation, discipline).
